Warblers Retreat
We stayed at Warblers Retreat to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, and it absolutely blew us away. From the warm welcome sign and thoughtfully curated gift basket to the exquisite dinner and relaxing soak in the outdoor hot tub, every moment felt special—like being treated like royalty. Dave and Barb went above and beyond with their hospitality and attention to detail, making us feel truly welcomed. The highlight? Visiting the glow worms after dark—nothing short of magical. The quiet forest, the soft bioluminescent lights, the stillness—it was an experience we’ll never forget. We left feeling completely refreshed, inspired, and deeply grateful for this unforgettable getaway.
Sea View Guest House
Staying at Sea View Guest House was an absolute highlight of my trip to Auckland! The room was spacious and beautifully designed, with plenty of natural light and a cozy atmosphere. The host went above and beyond—fresh bread, milk, and jam were waiting for us upon arrival, which made our morning so much easier. Outside, the backyard features a warm swimming pool perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. I especially loved soaking in the hot spring area—it was pure bliss. Inside, everything felt thoughtfully arranged: a full-sized fridge, clean linens, and lots of room to move around. The location is ideal—close to public transit and just minutes from downtown attractions. It’s such a great value for families or friends traveling together. I’d happily come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for comfort, charm, and a little bit of luxury.
Ponsonby Manor Guest House
We absolutely fell in love with the charm and location of this charming guest house! The historic building has such character, and being just a short walk from the city center makes it incredibly convenient. If you're after a view, rooms #5 and #9 are definitely worth requesting—those city vistas are unforgettable. The property is well-maintained and full of old-world elegance. While staff presence is minimal, it didn’t detract from our stay at all—we found it easy to navigate on our own and appreciated the quiet, peaceful atmosphere. It’s the perfect choice for travelers who value comfort, authenticity, and a bit of quiet retreat in the heart of Auckland.
Hit Hostel
Staying at Hit Hostel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Auckland! The location couldn't be better—right in the heart of the city, just steps from public transit and all the main attractions. The Wi-Fi was blazing fast throughout the hostel, perfect for working remotely or streaming without a hitch. Everything was spotless—staff actually cleaned every morning, including common areas and bathrooms, which really shows their commitment to hygiene. The beds were super comfortable and well-maintained, making for a great night’s sleep. Security was also impressive—feeling safe and relaxed throughout my stay. With such a central location, excellent cleanliness, and friendly staff, this place offers unbeatable value. Highly recommend it to travelers who want convenience, comfort, and peace of mind—all in one fantastic package.
YMCA Hostel
One of my top hostel picks in Auckland! The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the stay feel more like home. Right outside the door is a bus stop—super convenient for getting around the city without needing to walk far. The dorm rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, and each comes with a locker, fridge, air conditioning, and windows that open for fresh airflow. I also stayed in a private room, and it was just as impressive—clean, well-equipped with a fridge, AC, and a dedicated desk and chair, perfect for working or relaxing. Great value, great vibe, and an excellent choice for travelers who want comfort, convenience, and a friendly atmosphere.
Shooters Saloon Bar Hotel & Cabins
This place was a complete disappointment. The overall condition was poor—dirty, poorly maintained, and honestly made me feel uneasy. There's a small side room with a bed tucked away in the corner of the common area, which is super confusing and makes you wonder what goes on there. It’s not just odd—it’s unsettling. The staff were unhelpful, and promises made during booking didn’t match reality. I felt misled from the start. While it’s conveniently located near public transit to downtown Auckland, I wouldn’t recommend staying here—especially for safety or comfort reasons. Not worth the price, and definitely not something I’d ever consider again.
Kiwi International Hotel
We booked a three-bed room for our business trip, and the Kiwi International Hotel had exactly what we needed—one room with two beds and another with a single bed. The rooms were spacious and comfortable for all three of us, with no feeling of crowding. The hotel’s location is fantastic—just a short walk from the Sky Tower and close to public transit, making it super convenient for exploring Auckland. We also appreciated the free parking, which was a big plus since we drove in. Everything about the stay was top-notch: clean rooms, friendly staff, and excellent value. I’d definitely stay here again on future visits to Auckland. Highly recommended!
Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour
Staying at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour was an absolute delight. Located right by the waterfront, the views from the room were stunning—especially in the morning when the sun hit the harbor. The area is bustling with great dining options, so you never have to go far for a good meal. I’m actually planning to compare it with Park Hyatt on my next trip, but this stay already left me thoroughly impressed. The service was attentive without being overbearing, the room was elegant and spacious, and the overall atmosphere felt luxurious yet welcoming. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of comfort, location, and style. If you’re visiting Auckland, this hotel is definitely worth considering—it’s not just a place to sleep, it’s an experience.
Auckland City Hotel
Staying at the Auckland City Hotel on Hobson Street was a fantastic experience. The layout is unique—two-story rooms with a kitchen and living area downstairs, plus two bedrooms upstairs and one bathroom located on the second floor. It’s not your typical hotel setup, but it works really well for families or groups who want more space and privacy. Being in the city center, having free parking is a huge plus—just let the front desk know when you arrive, and they’ll open the gate for you. The breakfast buffet is generous and delicious, offering a great start to the day. Plus, the location is unbeatable—walking distance to shops, restaurants, and attractions. I’d highly recommend this place if you’re looking for comfort, convenience, and a little bit of local charm in central Auckland.
Surf 'N' Snow Backpackers
My colleague raved about this place, so I gave it a try — and honestly, it exceeded my expectations! This was my first time staying at a hostel-style accommodation, and the location couldn’t be better — right in the heart of Auckland. Just steps from the door, there’s a big supermarket, and major attractions like the iconic Sky Tower are only a 5- to 10-minute walk away. The best part? There’s a shared kitchen on one floor where guests can cook their own meals using fresh ingredients from the nearby store. It’s perfect for travelers who want flexibility and a bit of home comfort while exploring the city. I came alone, and this place made my trip feel personal, safe, and fun. If you’re looking for a great mix of convenience, affordability, and social vibes, this is definitely the spot. I’ll be back — no doubt.
Nesuto St Martins Apartment Hotel
The apartment was spacious and bright, making the entire stay incredibly comfortable. Located just a short walk from the metro station, getting around Auckland was effortless—whether heading into the city center or to the airport, everything was well-connected and convenient. What truly stood out was the outstanding value for money. Compared to other similar accommodations in the area, this place offers far better quality and pricing. I’d absolutely stay here again on my next visit to Auckland and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great balance of comfort, location, and affordability.
Adina CityLife Auckland
The hotel is spotless, with a warm and welcoming staff team that goes the extra mile. Located in a prime area, it's just steps away from local attractions and public transit, making exploration effortless. The room was comfortable, modern, and well-equipped—perfect for both business and leisure travelers. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland.
